Bored

You know I'm bored when I post twice in one day! I should be stitching, I want to be stitching, but I'm not, hmmm.... Anyway, I decided to try coffee dyeing some fabric. I really like how it turned out!

I just let soak in some coffee for about 15 minutes. I sprinkled some salt in the with it. I rinsed it out some, not too much. I didn't want to lose the color. That happened to me before. Anyway, I'm happy with it! The fabric was white Belfast and Cashel linen.

I also went to the bead store by my house today and picked up some beads. I made this fob for myself today. They had these crystals together in a pack and I fell in love. They are more autumn than winter, but I think they're pretty!

I also stopped by my LNS today. I really only needed threaders, but something else jumped in my hands...

I have to make one of those fobs Real Soon Now. I really liked that you joined your scissors and threader. Those are the only two tools I always need. I am always losing my threader (then buying another one and finding the first one...). You fob is lovely.
